Jasiek Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Hi, I know I will probably be ignored, mostly because this is my second/third post here, but I would like to ask you some help: I am an journalist-in-learning (a university in Poland, a field of study called "Journalism and social communication") and I created a blog in which I will write in english about games and anything gamish in nature. I would ask for help in two ways: 1) Just come in time to time and give me some constructive feedback on what and how I wrote. Also, comment on my english, it's not my main language, as you can see. 2) Give me some ideas on future articles. Because after writing a sort selection of indie games, and a review of Baldur's Gate: Enchanted Edition I will be out of them... :/ Any help will be very much appreciated. The address of the blog is http://gamingbyyeti.blogspot.com/ Pretty please, I will give you a cookie for help (or some leftover steam keys the next time I will have some :< )
melkathi Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 That's a cute avatar Your english is fine. There were two tiny mistakes in the text and no typos. Or there were two typos and no mistakes. So don't worry ("an critically acclaimed game" should be "a critically acclaimed game", though you do a and an correclty the whole rest of the blog. Money is singular. So instead of those money it should be this money) Personally I would have changed the structure of the sentence: "What we would get and what will we get" to "What we would get and what we will get" though more likely I would say "What we were to get and what we will get". That's just personal style though... I think I can't promise any ideas on future articles 1 Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).
Jasiek Posted December 8, 2012 Author Posted December 8, 2012 Will fix those typos "soon" After I finish writing the next article. Then I will need to make some screenshots from the games I am writing about But still, thanks for the quick feedback :D Here, have a cookie :D
melkathi Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Thanks *nomnom* Going to wait to see what games you write about. Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).
Jasiek Posted December 8, 2012 Author Posted December 8, 2012 I HAZ UPLOADED IT, FINALLY. I had some major problems with my internet, but still, I SUCCEED :D
BruceVC Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 I'll read your blog and give you feedback Also there are several people on these forums who enjoy correcting grammar, like AGX, so hopefully he reads this and then gives you input "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead" - Nelson Mandela
Jasiek Posted December 8, 2012 Author Posted December 8, 2012 Good to know, thanks for help, really. I just understood that my English has gotten a bit rusty since I last wrote in it D: Any feedback is more than welcome :D
Jasiek Posted December 8, 2012 Author Posted December 8, 2012 CHANGE OF PLANS, NEXT POST: RAGNAROK ONLINE 2 REVIEW :D
Jasiek Posted December 13, 2012 Author Posted December 13, 2012 A slight update to my blog has came :D Sorry for the link, but I just got an info that won't be getting any scholarship this year, because my $W%$%^#%# university is poor :/ http://adf.ly/Fvs1n You can always just watch my blog, you will avoid the ads that way... Will do an RO 2 review/first impressions as soon as it will work for me. Until that, I will work on a next indie game spotlight.

Gorth Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 Looking forward to the next installment I liked the indie presentations. 1 “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

casa Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 A very popular mistake you see often with these game versions (like the Witcher): It's "Enhanced", not "Enchanted".
